For an even richer flavor, consider using brown butter instead of regular butter. Adding a splash of white wine to the mushroom mixture elevates the complexity of the sauce. Freshly grated nutmeg complements the earthy flavors of this dish beautifully. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh basil for a visually appealing and flavorful finish.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
4 mins
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, indicating they are perfectly cooked. This should take approximately 2 to 4 minutes. Drain immediately and set aside to prevent sticking.
02
Step
2 mins
In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, allowing it to gently brown, infusing a nutty aroma. Add sliced baby portobello mushrooms and sauté for about 2 minutes, until they begin to soften and release their earthy essence.
03
Step
5 mins
Introduce the baby spinach, chopped fresh basil, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley into the saucepan. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir continuously until the spinach wilts and the sauce begins to thicken, approximately 5 minutes, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
04
Step
2 mins
Gently add the cooked gnocchi to the saucepan, ensuring each piece is lovingly coated in the savory sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the gnocchi to absorb the rich flavors, creating a cohesive and satisfying dish.
